Extraterrestrial parasite - Chapter 444
c442 Disparate histories
Chen Yang couldn’t help but be stunned. Since arriving in this era, all the scenes and facilities he has seen are all cutting-edge technologies, even ordinary doors.
But this door… turned out to be a very ordinary wooden door!
On the real earth, wooden doors are of course very common, and there is no need to feel so amazed or strange about them, but in this unknown era, such a wooden door is as strange as seeing a thatched house in a modern metropolis.
With a gentle push, the wooden door was not locked. Chen Yang walked into the room and took stock of the surrounding situation.
Under the dim lights, there is a musty smell in the entrance and exit aisles, casually discarded clothes and shoes, plus some questionable dirt, which really makes it impossible to have any good impression.
At the end of the corridor, a place four or five meters away was blocked by a curtain. Chen Yang retracted his gaze, stepped forward, pushed open the curtain, and truly stepped into the room.
Perhaps the entrance and exit corridor left a bad impression on Chen Yang. He originally walked in with an unfavorable attitude, but suddenly found that the scene in the room was actually very neat and clean, and he couldn’t help but be startled.
The hundreds of square meters of hall are filled with various medical instruments, including instruments that can allow people to move alone, as well as equipment as huge as nuclear magnetic resonance. Although there are many instruments at first glance, they are placed in an orderly manner without any clutter. If it weren’t for the fact that the lighting in the room was colder and darker, and the layout of the hall had more shadows, the feeling would definitely be much better.
And among this large number of equipment, there was a middle-aged man wearing black clothes. He was sitting in front of an experimental table, lowering his head and wondering what kind of thing he was tinkering with.
Chen Yang walked quietly behind the middle-aged man without shouting, and looked around.
Chen Yang was speechless at this sight. He thought he was doing some important research or study, but he turned out to be playing a racing game.
“Um…you are?”
As if feeling the shadow behind him, the middle-aged man shook his head and turned around, staring at Chen Yang in confusion and asked.
“Are you a doctor?”
Chen Yang glanced around. “Do you have a license?”
“License, are you kidding? How could I have that kind of thing…ahem, of course I have it.”
The middle-aged man stood up from his seat, “How dare I call myself a doctor without a license.”
“Really, if you are a doctor…then is there any way to cure cancer?”
“cancer?”
The middle-aged man had a strange look on his face, maybe he thought Chen Yang was joking. He waved his hand and walked to the other side and said: “This guest, you should understand where I am… What, is there something wrong with the prosthetic limb? Or is there something wrong with the electronic brain?”
“Well, I happened to be doing a series of discounts recently. You are a newcomer. Yes, all new customers who come to our door can enjoy a 20% discount and upgrade their electronic computers… This opportunity is not to be missed. Guest, you can …”
Before Chen Yang could reply, the middle-aged man chattered a lot, trying his best to recommend various projects and services to Chen Yang.
Of course, what attracted the most attention was the middle-aged man. The language he spoke turned out to be Chinese with a strange accent.
Along the way, Chen Yang had a general understanding of the language spoken in the crowd and the words in the store. Basically, they use a mixture of Chinese, English and Japanese. It seems that everyone can speak these three languages fluently, the difference lies in their own usage habits.
Chen Yang was too lazy to listen to this middle-aged man’s nonsense. Pointing directly at the display terminal on the table, he asked aloud: “Doctor. Can you use your personal terminal to log in to the network?”
“……sure.”
He talked a lot with a dry mouth, but the new guest was unmoved. This made the middle-aged man quite frustrated and his tone was a little weak.
“Can I log in with your identity information?”
After obtaining the middle-aged man’s consent, Chen Yang did not move, but immediately said the following words.
“My identity?”
The middle-aged man was stunned, and then his face became full of vigilance: “What do you want to do?”
In this era, personal information and identity are very important. No matter what you do, food, housing, transportation, and personal information are all linked together, so everyone values the security of their own information much more seriously than the people on Chen Yang’s side.
Chen Yang naturally understood this, so he knew that there was no chance that the middle-aged man would easily agree to these words.
But the world is so magical. It doesn’t matter whether you disagree with your personal will. There are too many ways to make people who disagree agree.
As if he sensed something vaguely wrong in the air, the middle-aged man began to quietly move back step by step, stretching his arms behind him as if he wanted to take something out from a certain position.
Chen Yang didn’t seem to care about this. He just watched the middle-aged man grab something behind his back, then turned around and turned around with a gun. He pointed it at Chen Yang and laughed: “Damn bastard, say that. Come out with your plan. What do you want to do here? Oh, let me guess, is it the public security police? Oh my God, you damn greedy pigs, I only paid more than 10,000, and you want to blackmail me again? Here is The black market in Area C is not the ground. If you continue to be greedy like this, I won’t mind fighting with you!”
“Snapped!”
The middle-aged man was less than halfway through his yelling, and when he was about to take a breath and continue speaking, his hand loosened, and the gun that was clearly held in his hand unexpectedly fell into the hands of the person opposite.
What’s even more disgusting is that the muzzle of the gun that was originally aimed at the enemy is now aimed at his own forehead. This is really very, very bad.
The sweat couldn’t stop flowing down. The middle-aged man tried his best to change his arrogant expression into a pleading expression: “Ha, guest, it was all a joke just now, it was just a joke. It can’t be taken seriously, it must not be taken seriously… I remembered, Today’s discount is not 20% off, it’s 50% off! No, no… it’s 10% off, free, yes, free service is the right thing. A big shot like you who doesn’t look like an ordinary person, I will serve you well. ”
“Using your personal information to log into the global network is something I don’t want to say a third time.”
With words that showed no emotion and a face that showed no emotion at all, the middle-aged man did not dare to take any risks. He came to the computer terminal honestly, verified his fingerprints and entered his password, and logged in to the global network. within.
As long as the identity verification was successful, the middle-aged man’s use value dropped sharply. He knocked the man unconscious and Chen Yang took control of the information terminal.
Personal computers in this world no longer have the cumbersomeness of a chassis, and almost all use a display screen with a thickness of only a few millimeters as an operating terminal.
According to Chen Yang’s observation, it is probably due to technological progress that abandons the manufacturing process that uses silicon as the main body and breaks through the physical limits of the manufacturing process, which greatly improves the computing performance of the chip, while at the same time the power continues to decrease.
Secondly, these information terminals are no longer the main body of computing. In this era, ubiquitous network links allow these information terminals to connect to the global network at gigabit speeds at any time, and then only need to transmit a large amount of data that needs to be calculated to On the “cloud”, by transmitting the cloud-computed data back, you can get results that can only be obtained by supercomputer calculations.
In general, information terminals are just tools for sending and receiving, and they also have the effect of 3D naked-eye display.
There are two methods of operation in this era. One is to connect to the brain and enter the virtual world. The second type is the current combination of gestures and eye tracking. As long as you understand the way gestures and eyeballs move, you can wave your fingers in the air at will like Chen Yang does now, and see holographic images and a large amount of information in front of your eyes. It operates extremely smoothly and smoothly.
Chen Yang had no free time to marvel at the convenience of the operation. As soon as he logged into the global network, he began to search for historical and news information.
The search engine in this world is not Baidu and Google, but a search engine named “OST”. Chen Yang thought for a moment and realized that this abbreviation probably means omniscient.
No matter what search engine it is, as long as it can complete the information he needs to know, Chen Yang quickly started searching, starting with the history.
The results of this search came out quickly.
Looking at this unrecognizable history, Chen Yang didn’t know how he should face it.
To put it simply, the history of the world seems to have become very abnormal since World War II.
China rose rapidly at an unprecedented speed and successively defeated US interference in North Korea and Southeast Asia. Around 1970, the entire world formed a tripolar confrontation between China, the United States and the Soviet Union.
In the face of China’s rapid rise, Japan, as the bridgehead of the United States, also recovered quickly with its support. However, in the face of the behemoth China, this bridgehead was crumbling and could collapse at any time.
After the 1980s, the tri-polar struggle became more intense. The three superpowers, who feared each other, launched a series of struggles around the world. If all three parties had not had a trace of reason, the entire world would have been covered by nuclear weapons.
Under such competition in all aspects of politics, military, economy, and science and technology, the Soviet Union was the first to be unable to hold on, the first to disintegrate and fall, and was immediately divided between the two hungry wolves, China and the United States.
After entering the 21st century, with the easing of the ideological struggle, the overall development of social economy, and the substantial increase in the knowledge quality of the people, China and the United States, two major powers with almost equal strength, realized that they are different from each other. The endless battle between them will only push the world to hell, and there will be no good side.
Yes, around 2010… (To be continued ~^~)
